Aries Male & Taurus Female?

I don't know how to ask a question about our possible compatibility without first going into detail with the story here.

I've been friends with a Taurus female for around 2 1/2 years now. We met and instantly got along, and everybody around us seemed to notice there was somewhat of an instant attraction between the two of us. This attraction has remained obvious pretty much the whole time since then. Anyways, we're both 17 now and obviously Seniors in high school. We don't live far from each other, but nonetheless...we go to seperate schools. After meeting and getting along so well from the start, we started getting closer and closer as friends. But then school started up again and we both met other people. We've both been in 2 relationships a piece since meeting each other, all of which lasted a very long time (obviously). Over this summer we both ended up being single, and we got a lot closer than we ever have been, but I still (regretfully) never made the proper "move" on her (so to speak) even though I wanted to badly.

So now it's school time again and we've both started seeing other people again...but our relationship hasn't fallen off...we're still sticking close and what not. Seems like we have certain things about us that are almost TOO similar. For instance, in the beginning for a while (2 1/2 years ago) we were both EXTREMELY shy around one another. Another thing we seem to have in common is the fact that we seem like we have to be with SOMEBODY at all times. And I get the feeling that since I didn't jump like I was supposed to, she just moved on and found somebody else just to ensure that she could have SOMEBODY. Since she did that, I did the same, and I feel almost bad about it as if the only reason I got with somebody was to get past her. Which still doesn't make any sense since I'm the one that let her get away.

Anyways, the attraction is still quite obvious, and I'm almost 100% positive she still likes me. Although, I guess I can never be absolutely sure...I know that i've never seen a girl act the way around me that she does. And I've never seen a girl look at me the way she does. And she's the only girl that I've ever been close to where I actually don't once think about the sexual aspect of it. I'm so focused on what an amazing person she is, and how interested in her I am; that the thought doesn't even cross my mind. This is pretty amazing, considering how much of a promiscuous person I seem to be. We're stil

l making plans to spend time together and what not, we're going to catch up really soon on a day off of school. I know it sounds crazy at 17 years old, but lately it's been hitting me that this girl totally seems like wife material for me one day in the future.

I can still feel the same things between us, and lately I'm almost determined that at some point me and her are going to date. And I can tell it'll be a lengthy and amazing relationship from the get-go. The attraction is still there. And although I don't know why I didn't "make a move" on her like I should've when I should've, I just keep telling myself that maybe "things happen for a reason" and that maybe there's a reason for why I didn't make that move quite yet...

Anyways, I guess I did the best that I could of explaining my situation to ya'll. I guess my main questions are:

How compatible is an Aries male with a Taurus female?

And exactly how obvious are Taurus females about their feelings? If she likes me, will I know it without a doubt; or are Taurus ladies extremely bad about leading people on without even realizing it?

And any other input would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry for writing such a novel here (first post, I'm a newbie to this place), lol, but I figured the background story was necessary in order to get proper answers to my questions.

Sounds to me like you both like each other, but just haven't got round to getting together. You could drop hints to her and see how she reacts. As a Taurus myself, I don't mess around and play games with people, if I like someone I like them and I try show it but I know most of the time I comes across as aloof as I get so shy around them. Enjoy this period where the attraction is obvious, before moving on to being together. Sometimes I think that is the best bit :p

Do you know her birth date and time so you can check the rest of your chart with hers? Moon signs are important in emotional relationships.

I know 2 Aries men and they are both very sexy. I like them cos they don't seem to bullsh*t, I know where I stand with them and they're a lot of fun but stable at the same time, not crazy. This attraction could be to do with my Gem moon though, I don't know.

we are very upfront with out feelings, it will show all over our face, if we are contantly smilling, we like u, if we blush we like u, if we cant look u in the eyes iwthout smiling, chances are we liek u. if our voices get high, we like u lol.

when i am totally comfortable aorund a guy, tlkaing normally, smiling, but still tlaking with my normal chills voices, act very aloof, and laid back, thats when i jus see the guy as a friend.

I appreciate both of you replying to my thread.

copperhead:
She is a VERY shy girl especially when around me, i've dropped the hints before to her but I don't think she likes it. It's at the point now where I think she realizes she likes me...but she's like scared of admitting it because she feels guilty since she has a boyfriend. Like everytime say we make plans to do something or i'll say something sweet to her, she always adds at the end something like "but just as friends." It's like a cover-up or something, although I don't know who she's trying to convince. Because I think it's more than obvious that she does like me still, she just doesn't want to admit it. Maybe things didn't happen yet because we're not ready for each other...who knows! I know her birth date is May 7th, although I don't know the time. Her mother is a Leo, and i'm pretty sure her father is an Aries (if that helps any).

Yes she is constantly smiling at me, she blushes around me a lot, and it seems to be hard for her to actually look me in the eyes anyways lol. She's a very shy girl, yet seems to me she's being obvious with her feelings through her body language. Although I don't think she realizes that she is being obvious, and as I told copperhead up there she's always trying to add "just as friends" onto everything, constantly reminding me that we're friends and nothing more apparently. Although, I really think she always says that because she feels guilty having a boyfriend and liking somebody else.

very true
i use that line all the time

That's good to know, i'm beginning to think I know for sure by now that this girl likes me.

I appreciate your thoughts also geminifox.

Me and her spent a night together on Saturday. Went out to dinner and then back to her house for a movie. It was nice I thought, although she chose not to tell her boyfriend what she was doing that night because he would "get mad" hahaha. Anyways, I think I kinda scared her though the next night (on Sunday) because I described to her that I still had feelings for her. And I think she knew this anyways, and I think she realizes she still likes me too. But she feels guilty for it since she has a boyfriend, and I think she wanted to pretend like this wasn't even the case. So she's being kind of distant right now because she says that me saying that is going to change our friendship again. Whatever, I told her I'd give her her space for a while because that's what it seems like she needs. I'm sure she'll be around at some point in the future, I really hope so at least.

I'm sure what you've said has given her food for thought. Taureans don't like to hurt people so I imagine that her present relationship will just run it's course and then you two will be free to pursue a relationship. Personally if I was with someone and I liked someone else I wouldn't just end my relationshp straight away, but my heart wouldn't fully be in the relationship. Time to think things through would be important to me.

Have you run your charts together? If you don't have the exact time of birth you can't get a accurate ascendant for her but you should still get her moon sign etc and see how that looks against your chart. Always a lot of fun to do! Let us know what it says!

She definitely is the type that doesn't like to tell people no or let them down. As I said, I guess she needs her space right now so I kinda backed off. She seems like a very committed person when it comes to relationships. Like this dude has made her cry on two seperate occassions (that I am aware of) because she came to me with the problems. And he tells her he's going to change, but he never does. And she keeps putting up with this, I get the feeling it's going to take A LOT to get her to break up with this dude. Which i'm kinda hoping for to happen sooner rather than later. Because yes I have a girlfriend and everything now, but I long for this Taurus female...I am so mesmerized by her. And I know without a doubt we should be together, and I think she knows it too and that's why it scares her.

copperhead:
You'll have to emphasize on this charts thing, because I'm not very familiar with what you are talking about. Also the moon sign, i'm not familiar with...I don't even know my moon sign. All I can tell you for sure about myself is that...

I was born March 27, 1990 around 6:00 pm Eastern Time.

If you go to astro.com or widgetsworld.co.uk or google astrological compatibility there'll be a whole host of sites where you can compare your birth charts. If you don't know her time of birth I'd put it down as 12 noon.

Your moon sign sort of shows how you react emotionally. Like I'm Taurus but my moon is in Gemini so I'm drawn to men who are flirty, chatty, intelligent and stuff. And usually these men don't satisfy the stability I'm looking for from my Taurus sun. My mind wanders quite a bit and I'm a massive flirt with most people, which again is more a Gem trait than a Taurean one.

i can tell u this right now, once a tautus female is in a relationship, and even if a guy has made them cry but they still stay, they rarely ever leave, a girl i knew left her man , but ende dup returning to him after 3 weeks, even tho her reaosn for levaing was his attitude..... now hes changing, and yes, it is impossible for a perosn to change, but for how long?
she will never leave him, and if she does, if she hasnt left him for u now, she will never leave him for u ever
ur jus there to comfort her, make her feel worthy.

copperhead:
I am truly amazed by these natal charts and stuff, they're amazingly accurate. I appreciate you for giving me this information so that i could compare.

lil.ladie.taurus:
Yep that's what it seems like. After our little "date" on the 20th, the next day I mentioned to her that I could still feel that we had the same feelings for each other and everything. And she agreed to everything that I said, but then things were "awkward" now that we talked about this. Because she knew everything was true and she can feel it too, but she has the mindset that if it's not talked about, then we can pretend like it's not happening. So I bothered her by saying all that cause it made her feel guilty, and I told her that i'd give her her space and that she knows how to reach me whenever she's ready. That was on the 21st, and I haven't heard from her since. It hurts, but I'm trying to take it positively. Her boyfriend is an asshole, and he's caused her to change anyways. But I see it as for a while now she's sort of had the "best of both worlds." Because she's had her big jock "protector" type boyfriend and then she's had the one who actually cares about her and is sweet to her in me. Whenever he treats her like shit, she comes crying to me trying to get me to make her feel better. Well what happens now when we're not communicating and she doesn't have the option of talking to somebody that really cares? Maybe that sounds stupid, but I'm thinking maybe eventually she'll figure it out for herself.

hey fellow houstonian. i'm a taurus female and all i can say is we take our time and we dont' like to hurt people's feelings. go slow with her and be patient with her. if she's dating someone else, i can almost guarantee you she is feeling a tinge bit guilty over seeing both of us because our sign is typically one who is loyal to one person.

bythe way, that stuff about how to date a taurus female is crap:

"If you're dating a Taurus female, take her to an expensive steak house, I'd much rather enjoy a coffee or deli on a date rub on your soft musk if a man is wearing a musk, then he's gay, wear your corporate suit yawn, and arrive in your four-door Sedan boring. She'll return the love by cooking for you at her home would much rather go to a deli or restaurant. When mentioning the house you would like to build, make sure you tell her about the large wooded lot with room for kids and dogs yes, mention this and be sure to scare the Taurus lady away if you say it too soon into dating . If you're serious about her, let her know that it wouldn't be complete without a woman's touch this must've come from one of those Harliquin Romance crap novels. She will interpret your comment and hint about a cute little 20 carat diamond she spotted at the mall No man of mine better not spend/waste their money on jewelry over $ 3k; I'd rather him save the money for the future.

Dang, where did you find this excerpt? Sounds like something that was written about 30 years ago....times change sweetheart

Wuz up houstonpeach? Out there on the coast, huh? From Surfside to Sunnyside, Houston stand the fuck up! Haha so anyways...

Yeah that's pretty much it, she feels guilty as hell about it. Because she knows we still both have those same feelings for each other. But she's with somebody else and she's loyal as hell. So these feelings make her feel guilty, but it wasn't until I brought them up that there were problems. Like I said, she knew this was still going on. But as long as we weren't talking about, she could pretend like it wasn't happening. So now I talked about it and scared the hell out of her it would seem...

FYI.............. girls dont go to guys tellin them about all the nice things going on with thier bf, and how hes so sweet etc. she will only go to u for when her man has upset her, menaing she has nobody else, so she runs to u. that doenst mean her man doenst love her, or care for her, u only hear the times shes upset, ebcuase thats all shes going to share with u, becuase thats the only time she wnats u. when she feels lonley. if it was anything more, she woulda left her man for sure, if ti was a storng feleing,a nd she knew FOR sure she wanted to be with u, she would. but ur jus the guy on the side. which is why she felt awkward when u brought it up, she feels the same way, but not nearly as much a su feel for her, she most likely just exagerated so she wouldnt hurt ur feelings,a nd so she knows u wont leave her alone.if she did feel the same, she woulda been more excited about it, or tlaked about it more, asked more questions , tried to find a solution etc
sry

Naw it's all good, I appreciate your input. I've decided that she's just not available to me right now and hopefully in the future she'll be single again and I can really pursue her.

I've met this new girl in the last couple of weeks anyways, I'm real interested in her. She's a Scorpio, so fucking gorgeous too!

rock on sunnyside.

Hahahaha no doubt houstonpeach.

I can already tell what's gunna happen anyways. I've been on a date with this amazing Scorpio female that I mentioned. And we're really into each other, and I can tell that we're going to be dating regularly. We'll end up having strong feelings for each other. And then this Taurus girl will break up with her boyfriend and decide to start liking me again. Only it'll be too late, or so it would seem. I am telling you, I can already tell that's probably what's going to happen here. God, how self-destructive can you get?!

sorry ..haven't read any of the comments..but as for the title .. an ex couple..he was posessive, she all over the place (not cheating..just lots interests,lots friends) ..took about 3 months till he got her..stayed together a year..she ended it, cos she needed freedom , she moved on ,had literarly time of her life in the next couple of months, he spent them thinking of her, trying to get over,lost xx kg, started smoking,the whole deal..think they 're playing friends at the moment..

lol Im with you Houston on the "How to date a Taurus woman" being absolute crap.

It probably your impatience causing you to question so much, but it probably had nothing to do with her taking her time and giving the ex time to change before she gave up being loyal, devoted, and forgiving. I did the same thing with my ex and my current. I really really liked the current before he was my man, but I just hadnt resolved everything with the ex, although he wasnt half the man my current is. Taurus can be impatient too, but we like to be sure and feel steady in the changes we make. She obviously just needed the time to come to the end that she's reached. Now that ya'll are in the same place go for it and make the most of it! I have a wonderful Aries friend (that is an ex) and he is absolutely wonderful to me.Things were ok when we were together, I wouldnt date him again, but it is a surprisingly rewarding friendship despite what astrological compatibility says.

She might want to see that you CAN be a friend to her more than anything else and that you have a real vested interest in her that includes listening to her problems, fears, and concerns in such a way that will allow her to gradually build trust and assurance that you really mean what you say and that you have good intentions. I'd say either way to continue to be her friend, show her that you are stable and you can offer her a certain security. If and when she is ready to change that she may very well let you know straight out or she may offer some hints to let you make the first move to save face.
